It has been experimentally established that, at a nominal cooling fluid flow rate of 0.006 kg/s, the pressure drop on one cooling pipeline of ADC64ECal modules is ≈0.12 atm. Numerical calculation and experimental measurement results for the pressure drop agree with each other with a deviation less than 2%.

The IBR-4 design is based on the MBIR reactor implementing the principles of continuity of succesful solutions used in the IBR-2 and IBR-2M reactors. The IBR-4 core ensures the nuclear safety of the reactor and minimizes low-frequency fluctuations in pulse energy. The IBR-4 design is a development of the basic design of the core with the addition of beryllium reflectors and small-volume water moderators. The IBR-4 reactor makes it possible to obtain thermal neutron flux densities on the surface of the water moderator for the extracted neutron beams at a level of 1.2 × 10<sup>14</sup> n/(cm<sup>2</sup> s), and, in the region close to the surface of the moderator, 3.0 × 10<sup>14</sup> n/(cm<sup>2</sup> s).

Therefore, our interpretation is entirely based on well-known and tested concepts and methods of wave mechanics.
